Safety

2. Safety
2.1 Safe use of the appliance
Because the range is a heated appliance that has hot surfaces during normal use, the fol-
lowing warnings and instructions must be followed in order to avoid burns:
During long-time operation even the frame surrounding the flat top gets hot.
The capability of the flat top to store and even out the heat also keeps it hot for a long time
after switching it off.
For safe handling of cookware on the cooking top, always use heat protective gloves.
Do not leave the range on for long periods totally without supervision.
2.2 Disposal of the appliance
Once the range has reached the end of its useful life, it must be disposed of in compliance
with local rules and regulations. The best way of dealing with or recycling any substances
which potentially have an adverse impact on the environment is to dispose of them
through a proper problem waste company.

3.1 Intended use of the appliance
The Ardox range is intended for preparing different kinds of foodstuffs using cookware.
Preparing food directly on the flat top without cookware is allowed
3.1.1 Prohibited use
Use of the appliance for any other purposes than that stated above is prohibited.
The manufacturer shall not be held liable for any situations which may arise from failure
to comply with the warnings and instructions given in this manual.
3.2 Operating principle and construction
In addition to a single range, there are combinations of a range and an oven (Chef 220 or
Chef 240) or a range and a proving cabinet (Chef 200). This manual covers the Ardox
range, while Chef 220, Chef 240 and Chef 200 have their own manuals.
The range is equipped with four or six cooking zones.
Each cooking zone is equipped with a stepless power regulator. A green pilot light for eve-
ry cooking zone indicates that the power is on.

4. Operation instructions
4.1 Before use
There is a slight smell of metal and thermal insulation when the range is heated for the
first time. This is completely normal and disappears by heating the range. Before using
the range for the first time, heat it at maximum temperature until the smell disappears.
4.2 Operation
4.2.1 Selecting cookware
You can use the same cookware on the flat-top range as on the conventional range.
To get the best benefit from the range as well as from the cookware observe the following:
• Always lift pans, do not drag.
• Use good quality flat-based cookware.
• Wait for pans to cool before putting them in cold water.
• Always ensure that pans have clean, dry bases before use.
• Ensure that pan handles are positioned safely and away from heat sources.
• Always use pan lids except when frying.
Remember that good quality pans retain heat well, so generally only low or medium heat
is necessary.
4.2.2 Using the range
Ranges intended for use aboard ships are equipped with a kettle support. Using a range
without the kettle support is prohibited.
During installation a mains switch may have been fitted near the range, often on a wall
nearby. Check that the mains switch is in the ON position.
The range is controlled with power regulators and pilot lights (see Figure “Operating pan-
el”). Start cooking on maximum power (turn the knob 3/4 rounds clockwise). When boil-
ing starts decrease the power as needed.
Do not leave the cooking zone on without any load because it then overheats, which con-
siderably decreases its operating life. By turning the cooking zone off when not needed
energy is also saved and a cooler working environment is achieved.

Operation instructions

If there are longer interruptions in the electricity distribution, all power regulators of the
range should be set to the 0 position. This should be done in order to prevent unexpected
start-up of the range when the electricity distribution is restored.
4.3 After use
4.3.1 Cleaning
Use of a hose or pressure washer to clean the range is forbidden.
Before cleaning the range, please remember that it remains hot for a long time after use.
In all cleaning prefer chemical cleaning methods rather than mechanical rubbing.
Ranges are electrical appliances, which means that there are restrictions regarding clean-
ing them with water. Clean the outside of the range with a damp cloth only to avoid water
getting into the air inlets.
When cleaning the surfaces of the range, use a slightly alkaline detergent (pH 8-10) dilut-
ed in water according to instructions (for instance a detergent intended for oven cleaning).
Cleaning is very easy if possible spillovers are removed immediately with a damp cloth.
Sugar and mixes containing much sugar must be removed immediately, because later re-
moving will be laborious.
A clean cooking top ensures efficient heat transfer to the cookware. Cooking is then fast
and the operating life of the heating elements is extended.
4.3.2 Service
This appliance does not contain parts which can be serviced by the user. Maintenance
must be carried out by an authorised agent.
In the event of fault or malfunction, switch the appliance off at the mains. Contact an agent
authorised by the manufacturer and use original spare parts.

Installation

5. Installation
5.1 General
The installation of the appliance must be carried out in accordance with the manufactur-
er’s instructions and in compliance with local rules and regulations. These instructions
must be used together with the installation drawing.
This appliance may be connected to the mains electricity by qualified persons only.
5.2 Transporting and unpacking the range
The range is best transported in its own package, which protects it from outside damage.
If it is necessary to unpack the range, possible lifting must be done from the bottom frame
using suitable spacers of wood. To prevent damage, the top of the range must not be used
as a worktop on the construction site or during installation.
5.3 Positioning the range
Because the temperature of the cooking zone accidentally forgotten on without a pan may
reach even 350°C, it is mandatory to follow local fire safety regulations when installing
the range.
When installing the range, care should be given to ensure that there is a free passage of
cooling air around the range and that there are no other sources of heat near the cooling
vents.
It is recommended that the range is placed under a hood because of the steam arising dur-
ing cooking.
The range is positioned in the installation place and adjusted in a horizontal position from
the adjustable legs.
On ranges fitted with an oven, the horizontal position should be checked from the runners
of the oven in order to achieve good browning results.
When the range is in the right place and in a horizontal position, fix it firmly to the floor.
Models for use on land are fixed by the plates on the back legs and ranges intended for
use on ships by the plates on each leg.

Installation

5.4 Electricity connections
Should maintenance require the appliance to be tested before all the protective coverings
are in place, please be particularly careful of the moving parts inside the casing as well as
of live parts.
To facilitate future maintenance and to increase safety, install a separate disconnection
switch for the range in the immediate vicinity of the appliance. The switch should discon-
nect the appliance completely from the mains supply.
The supply cable inlet is in the back right-hand corner of the range and the connection
point inside the range.
The top deck needs to be open to connect the range to the mains. Unfix the screws at the
front part of the flat top and raise the deck up.
Be cautious when opening the deck because of its weight and always lock the deck into
the open position with the fixing rod.
In case of combination of a range and an oven, the connection point for the supply cable
is located on the rear wall of the oven (right low corner). In order to make the connection,
the right side panel of the oven must be removed.
All information needed to connect the range is to be found on the name plate, the connec-
tion diagram and the installation drawing.
5.5 Test-run
Please read the safety and operation instructions as well as the functional description of
the appliance before testing the range.
Test the range once it has been connected to the mains electricity.
Check that every cooking zone heats up and the corresponding pilot light turns on when
the zone is switched on with the power regulator.
Close and fasten the top deck.

6. Troubleshooting
If the appliance fails to work, check to ensure that
• it has been used according to the instructions
• all removable parts are in place
• the main power switch (usually on a wall or in the immediate vicinity of the appli-
ance) is in the ON position
• the fuses (overload protection) have not blown in the fuse box. Ask a qualified per-
son to check overload protection.
Should the range still not work, contact an authorised agent. Before contact, make sure
you have at hand the appliance type and serial number to be found on the name plate on
the right front corner of the appliance.
This appliance does not contain parts which can be serviced by the user. Maintenance
must be carried out by an authorised agent.
